webfact Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Russian dies in high-speed motorbike crash in North PattayaPATTAYA: -- A 26 year old Russian died in the early hours of Monday in a high-speed road crash on the Sukhumvit Road in North Pattaya.Police and rescue services were called to the scene of the crash in front of a Shell Petrol Station on the Sukhumvit Road in North Pattaya just after 1.30am. Lying on the road was the body of Mr. Cherednichenko who was identified through a rental agreement for the Yamaha R-6 600cc Motorbike he was driving at the time of the crash.Although no witnesses to the crash came forward, damage to a steel barrier on the central reservation was seen and catastrophic injuries to the victim were sustained, including a traumatic amputation of his left foot below the knee and a major skull fracture, which suggest to Police Investigators the impact with the barrier occurred at a very high rate of speed.Full story: http://www.pattayaone.net/pattaya-news/112138/russian-dies-in-high-speed-motorbike-crash-in-north-pattaya/-- Pattaya One 2013-12-16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post phitsanulokjohn Posted December 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2013 RIP to a fellow biker.Some of these machines are far too fast for Pattaya,but i suppose all the time there's a market for them people will continue to rent them out,and at the end of the day it's within the riders ability to make the bike go fast or slow.You never get a second chance on a bike, and so one needs to pay them the ultimate respect. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is also the mechanical condition of these rental bikes. In my younger days, when I used to rent the scooters and the bigger 400-600cc bikes, more than a few had mechanical breakdowns while I was riding them. Most are very poorly maintained and this factor must also be considered when these accidents occur...but if course it won't be. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johninbkk Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I think GAZZPA is missing the point. Whilst these people are driving around at high speed, (with usually little or no experience on motor bikes let alone a bike so powerful) he is putting everyone on the road at risk. No different to the pathetic locals I see on a daily basis screaming through traffic weaving in an out at out peril. Good Riddens.

Big bikes can be much safer as smaller bikes, drive both at 100 km/h and the bigger bike is much safer. However if you want to go super fast the big bike will allow you too and combine it with the poor roads here it could get real dangerous especially if you haven't driven a bike before ect ect. We do't know enough to judge, was the guy drunk, driving too fast, did he have experience or not. Maybe he was forced of the road.. who knows. Drive within ones abilities is a good motto. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just1Voice Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 We don't know what caused the accident, other than the results of a horrific crash. Nothing wrong with big bikes (been riding them most of my life) unless you don't realize the power you are straddling and let "joy" overcome common sense. When you do that, you'r an accident just looking for a a place to happen. Over the past 6 years in CNX, i can't count the number of accidents I've seen involving foreigners without experience laying down the bikes on simple curves. RIP and hope you didn't suffer too much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaxYakov Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Sportsbikes (nor scooters for that matter) are not toys. It's a tough way to learn that lesson. No vehicle on a public road should be considered a toy, especially, including oneself, as a pedestrian. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Briggsy Posted December 16, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 16, 2013 North Pattaya Road, if that was where the crash was, is a built-up area. In the UK it would be a 30mph speed limit. (48 km/h). We don't know but so many dangerous factors are probable for those who know Pattaya and the behaviour of its tourists and inhabitants. 1. Speed 2. Alcohol 3. Inexperience with very high-powered motorcycles (130 hp) 4. Inexperience with local sloppy driving habits 5. Somebody pulling out or changing lanes unexpectedly causing the rider to swerve 6. Poor street lighting 7 Very poorly maintained rental motorcycle, particularly brakes, tyres, balance, chassis/forks/swinging arm alignment 8 Lack of appropriate clothing and helmet I would not be surprised if all 8 factors were involved here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In Search of Space Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 It is far to easy to rent sports bikes without licence or agreement, very few of the customers have experience 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
